The
archipelago of the yacht charter Seychelles is situated in the Indian Ocean north east of
Madagascar about 1.600km far from the African coast.
The district
yacht charter Seychelles is about 115 islands.
The arrival is
via the international airport on the main island Mahé.
The landscapes
are formed of granite rocks, white beaches and of course a lot of water. The
islands subdivide the district yacht charter Seychelles into two groups.
The granite
islands (42 islands) are unique in the whole world. All granite islands on the
yacht charter Seychelles cruise can be reached very comfortable, because they
are all situated in an ambit of 60 km around the main island Mahé.
This
yacht charter Seychelles island group is just four degrees south of the equator (consider
good sun protection!). The famous district yacht charter Seychelles for the
yacht charter Seychelles cruise is north of Mahé over Praslin, la Digue, Bird
Island and Denis.
Turquoise
waters, white palm beaches, close vegetation and creole culture promise an
unforgettable yacht charter Seychelles cruise in the district yacht charter
Seychelles.
The various
tropical flora offers bananas, coconuts, yam, breadfruit and mangos. A famous
present of the yacht charter Seychelles crew for taking home is the cinnamon
for home Christmas pastries that grows on the plateau.
One unique
specialty is the Coco de Mer, the nut of the yacht charter Seychelles, a coconut kind that is
just growing on the yacht charter Seychelles and is just allowed to achieve with a
certificate.
The coral
islands are situated in the south west of the granite islands in direction to Madagascar. Through a long fertilization with guano also this islands, just a
few meters above sea level are covered with strong vegetation.
To this island
also belongs the UNESCO protected Aldabra- atoll, the biggest atoll in the
world. More detailed information about this nature experience you will find on
the official website of the atoll.
The coral
islands are also called Outer Islands. They are subdivided into five groups
(South-, Amirantes-, Alponse-, Farquhar- and Aldabra- group). Except for the
Amirantes all coral islands are far about 400 and 1.000 km from Mahé and not
reachable for the yacht charter Seychelles cruise. They spread up the sovereign
territory of the yacht charter Seychelles to 400.000 square kilometer.
Next to Mahé
the islands Praslin and La Digue are popular destinations in the district yacht
charter Seychelles. On Praslin the yacht charter Seychelles nut and be acquired directly from
the plantation from the yacht charter Seychelles crew. A visit in the breath
taking plantation “Vallee de Mai” is recommended.
Each with a
few kilometers far from Praslin there is the daughter island Curieuse, Cousin
and Cousine and Ile Ronde. On Cousine the yacht charter Seychelles crew
supports the visit in the only and unique hotel whose owner is at the same time
the ornithologist and conservationist of the island, the renaturation. Next to
some very rarely species of birds the yacht charter Seychelles crew also can
watch some free living giant turtles.
Also Cousine
(west of Praslin) has this rarely turtle species. Is the yacht charter
Seychelles crew sailing in the distant situated islands Grand Seur, Felicite
and Coco finally you will have the impression to be in paradise.
Following sand
beaches can be visited for relaxing from the yacht charter Seychelles crew. On
Praslin: Anse Volbert, Anse Lazio, Anse Petit Cour. The island is about 25 sea
miles far from Mahé.
On Digue you
will find nice beaches Anse Source d`Argent, Anse Cocos, Grand Anse. In La
Passe on La Digue there is also a well assorted supermarket in which the yacht
charter Seychelles crew can buy some more victuals for the journey.
The wind
situation leaves nothing to be desired.
Between 10 and
20 knots the wind blows from May to October from south east and in the rainy
period from November from north west. The best sailing period is between April
and October, but also from November on you can experience dreamily yacht
charter Seychelles cruises, with sometimes sleazy rainwear. In the changing
months between April and October the wind can abate a little.
One remark to
the currency. The yacht charter Seychelles rupee was the only currency until the end of 2005
due to a rigid foreign exchange control. Now the inhabitants are also allowed
to take Dollars or Euros. Euros are preferred, the yacht charter Seychelles
crew should take enough small notes with them, because the exchange money is
just being paid in yacht charter Seychelles rupees and then best to spend them instead to
change them back for this inexpressibly quotation. Everything can be paid with
credit cards in the district yacht charter Seychelles.
